The other two witnesses were George H. Giddings and General J. Hale Sypher, who had been interested in securing contracts for supplying beef on the hoof and on the block for the army in Cuba. They testi- fled that General Eagan had told them that the Secretary of War had asked him to give the refrigerator beef a trial, while Mr. Sypher said that General Eagan had created the impression upon him that he preferred beef on the block to refrigerator beef. Their testimony throughout was contradictory to General Eagan's testi- mony. Mr. Giddings said that Congress- man Hawley was present at several of his conferences with General Eagan. A majority of the army surgeons ex- pressed he opinion that the canned beef was v _.tisfactory as food for the troops, but some of them thought it no more harmful than other meat in the Cuban climate. Captain Ashton B, Beyl, chief surgeon of the Rough Riders Brigade Ih the Santiago cam- paign, testifled to being made violently sick on three different occasions by eating canned roast beef and on one occasion several others who partook of the meat with him also became very fll. Soon after this-experience he had found a plece of bacon iying by the roadside. This he had taken up, cleaned and cooked and had found it very palatable. This meat had not caused any inconvenience. The beef had occasloned vomiting on each occasion. The surgeon of the Tenth Cavalry had reported similar experiences among the men of that regiment as a result of eating the canned beef. Others had eaten it without apparent i1l effect. The beef was tough, stringy, tasteless and de- vold of nutrition, and Dr. Heyl thought its use had promoted disease in the army. George H. Giddings of San Antpnio, Texas, who had put in a bld to supply the beef for Cuba on the hoof, testified. In reply to a re- quest from Major Lee, Mr. Giddings detailed the particulars of varlous interviews with Gen- erai Eagan concerning the letting of the con- tract for beef. Hls first conversation had re- lated to the epecifications for bids at which Mr. Giddings had called attention to the fact that they were vague. General Eagan had then said that the specifications were necessarily vague, as he could not at that time give any specific information. General Eawan had at that time said his preference would be for re- frigerator beef, if he had any confidence in it; but he did not think the refrigerator beet could be made available in the Cuban climate. “T had been in Cuba about this tme my- self,” sald the witness, ‘“and i agreed with him that it would be impossible to keep the refrigerator beef in that climate without re- frigerators.’’ r. Glddings then told of his visit to the commissary general on the st of July, when the latter told him that the Secretary of War had sent for him the night before and had said that owing to the difference in price they had better give the refrigerator beef a trial that he would have to do this. then asked General Eagan if he had any confidence in the proposition and he replied that he had very little. but that the refrigera- tor men were prepared to give bonds to keep the beef g or seventy-two hours after leaving the refrigerators. He also stated that [ e R e R e e e B e B e B e e e SECRETARY ALGER. ¢t B Oebedeieieieie® they had a preserving process by which they were able to keep the beef in condition, but he sald that if there was dissatisfaction after the contract went into effect he would upset it_and give the Texas cattlemen a chance.’ Mr. Giddings then proposed to make & propo- sition to keep his combination of cattlemen together for the purpose of taking the con- tract in the emergency indicated, and this he did. He produced a copy of this document He had represented, he sald, the combination xas fully capable of carrying the contract into effect. Mr.” Glddings sald in reply to questions by Major Lee that General Eagan had told him that when he was an officer in the fleld he always drove his beef with him on foot and that he (Eagan) thought this the proper way to_supply beef for the army. Repeating his interview with Secretary Alger General Eagan had sald, according to Mr. Giddings: ‘‘Well, the Secretary sent for me 1ast night and told me that there was o much difference in price that we should give the refrigerator beef a trial." *‘Did_he order you to do that? I asked.” he replied, ‘but his wish amounts to .’ General Eagan then repeated his want of confidence and refterated that If the beef did not prove satisfactory he would annul the contract, for he would not let the soldlers be polsoned. i With reference to General Eagan's reference to a preservative process, Mr. Giddings said that the general had told him that Swift & Co., who had made the lowest bid on refrigerator beef, had a process which would enable them to Keep the beef for seventy-two hours after being taken from th- refrigerator. “ Do you believe 1t?' 1 asked General Eagan said Mr. Glddings, “‘to which he replied, 'T've got to believe—I've got to give it a trial. Mr. Giddings sald his relations had been pleasant with General Eagan, that he had gone into the general’s office frequently, because he felt that he had a right to do so. B e S o o SR e i o el o 4 @~ “If,”" he added, ““General Eagan referred to me when he sald he had forbidden some one admission to his office, the statement was un- true.’’ J. Hall Sypher, attorney for the Texas cattle- | men, confirmed 'what Mr, Giddings had said. He fald that while he had not visited General Eagan th Mr. Giddings, he had seen him frequently and talked fully with him on this | subject in the interest of the Texas men, General Ragan,” said the witness, '‘con- veyed the impresgfon to me that he distinctly and positively preferred beef on the block to refrigerator beef, and I 8o informed my peo- pie, sending for Some of them to come here.”” pher said that he had first discovered a tendency to change his mind on the part of General Bagan soon after the bids were opened. “He disclosed to me then,” said the witness, “that the refrigerator beef men had volunteered to give a bond for the preservation of thelr meat for seventy-two hours after leaving the refrigerator. I asked him if he thought it possible to do thls, and he replied: ‘I don't belleve it unless they put up coid storage plants.” ** Continuing, Sypher sald that semething was said by General Fagan at this juncture con- cerning a preservative process, but that he gave it very little attention. “Some days later,” ' Sypher said, ¢General Eagan informed me that owing to the great difference in price, he would have to give the refrigerator beef & trial. ‘Trial’ was the word he used." The witness sald In_reply to a question put by Major Les that General Eagan had said | something about ‘‘political pressurs as the reason for the necessity for making the trial, and that he had sald something about his con- ference with the Secretary of War. As to just what he had eald on this latter point witnes could not remember, but he thought Mr. Gid- dings had stated it correctly. Major Phillp F. Harvey, who was chief sur- geon of the first division of the army at San- tlago, and Major A. H. Appel, who was in | command of one of the division hospitals, both testified, but neither had glven especial atten- tion to the beef used. Major Appel said he had never heard a good word sald for the canned beef. Colonel Charles R. Greenleaf, chief medical | inspector of the army, who was the chief sur- geon In the fleld durfng the Spanish war, and | who was with General Miles in Porto Rico, tes- | tified that while in Cuba on his way to Porto | Rico he had heen able to give no attention to | the food supplies of the troops. but while in | Porto Rico he had looked into the question of | food incidentally. He then heard no com- | plaints of importance except ns to the charac- | ter of the cooking. His attention had not heen brought to any complaints concerning either the | anned or refrigerator beef. He had eaten some of the canned roast beef and did nul‘ relish it. “It was mot pleasing to the sight,”" he said, “‘and it was mawkish to the taste without con- diments such as salt and pepper.” | In reply to a question as to what effect the | use of this meat as food would have upon the | health of the troops, Dr. Greenleaf sald the ef- fect of it would be similar to the use of all canned meat. If good and prepared with con- diments and vegetables, and not used too | much, it might be used without Getrtment. If spoiled, it would produce sickness, or probably. | if used steadily, the system wouid not accept it. It would, it used daily and without cond ments or vegetables, pall on the appetite, which would at last revolt against it, ! He had found that in the hot climate of | Portp Rico the meat did not keep long when | opened. He had not taken the food question | into account In connection with the health of | the troops, attributing the sickness solely to the climate. forearm, moderate. Company E, Pri- vate Richard.

A& soon as it was light enough, Sheriff Getchell and | Marshal Tompkins with a posse of men | went on the trail, but at a late hour this evening nothing more than uncen- | firmed rumors that he had been seen | for Dutch Flat, had been learned here.

Moore_has for:twenty vears been un- der the espionage of the officers. In 1882 he was caught-in"the act of circu- lating anonymous léetters of a vile char- acter, addressed to prominent ladies, and was sent to jail for ninety day: Three years ago he shot a neighbor’'s cabin full of holes because he objected to the neighbar working a certain claim on the creek. For this he got 150 days. The City Trustees met to-day, and after offering a reward of $300 for Moore’s arrest and conviction, elected Henry Fowler to Kilroy's position. Fowler formerly served &s a speclal of- ficer in San Francisco. He is a dead shot, big, brave and active and doubt- less will prove as unpopular with the hoodlum element as did his predeces- sor. Sheriff Getchell to-night personally posted an offer of $250 for Moore, dead or alive.
